Ectopic thyroid is a rare developmental anomaly. We describe an unusual case of ectopic thyroid tissue found in the gallbladder wall of a 68-year-old man who underwent cholecystectomy for acute cholecystitis. Pathological findings were compatible with ectopic thyroid tissue in the gallbladder wall. This very rare pathology is discussed with a review of the relevant literature.
异位甲状腺是一种罕见的发育异常。我们描述了一例不寻常的病例,在一名因急性胆囊炎接受胆囊切除术的68岁男性的胆囊壁中发现了异位甲状腺组织。病理结果与胆囊壁中的异位甲状腺组织相符。本文结合相关文献复习对这种极为罕见的病理学情况进行了讨论。
